What it is
Budgyt is a cloud, database-backed budgeting platform for finance teams. It builds budgets, compares actual results with plans, and supports reforecasting. Department heads, program leads, and other contributors can collaborate through approval workflows and role-based administration. Budget tools include unlimited scenarios, forecasts covering up to ten years, cash flow and forecasted balance sheets, salary and benefits projections, and personnel cost allocations. Reports include budget-versus-actual views, standard or custom dashboards, and board-ready visualizations. General ledger actuals can enter through accounting connections or Excel and CSV files. Budgyt also lists rolling forecasts, multi-entity budgeting, accounting integrations, activity logs, and audit trails. The service runs on the web and through an API, with cloud deployment. It says hosting uses AWS, customer-isolated databases, single sign-on options, and multifactor authentication. Pricing is on request; the Nonprofit plan is $399 a month, billed annually, with a one-time setup and training fee.

Who it suits
Budgyt suits finance teams coordinating budgets with department heads, program leads, and other contributors. It can fit organizations needing forecasting, variance reporting, and multi-entity budgeting, but not those replacing accounting software.
